Definitely Worth The Price
By Dylan Taylor on Reviewed in the United States on August 30, 2012
I come from 4 years of using my Razer Lachesis 4000 DPI mouse, and I have used a few other mice as well. I was a bit skeptical about this mouse, since it was just released and it uses the fairly new Avago 9800 sensor, but I must admit, it works amazingly well. There is no noticeable acceleration (positive or negative) at all, and the mouse movement feels incredibly smooth, even on the "control" side of my Razer Vespula mouse pad. I absolutely love the customizeable colors, although the colors on the screen don't perfectly match up with the color the mouse changes, it works fairly well, and I managed to get a rather awesome looking green scroll wheel, off-white middle indicator, and orange MLG logo on my mouse that is very satisfying to look at. I also was able to effortlessly put my name on the LCD screen on the bottom, which is great for changing settings (especially CPI) on the fly. Although I don't game at extremely high CPI, the mouse supports up to 8200 CPI natively, and it can cheat to achieve a "fake" 16,400 CPI using the ARM processor on-board. Why anyone would need that high CPI is beyond me, but it does work. The mouse cord looks and feels very high quality, and the surface of the mouse isn't as shiny as I thought it would be. Coming from a soft rubber finish, I thought I would hate the surface, but it's the nicest looking mouse I've ever used, and it's much more fingerprint resistant than I imagined. Overall, this mouse is fantastic, and I would highly recommend it.

Its a good mouse that has a lot flaws.
By Luis G. Cabezas on Reviewed in the United States on January 4, 2013
This was my first SteelSeries mouse that I have purchased. I have owned a lot of mice which include Logitech G400, G700, G9X (my newest one), CM Storm Recon, and other gaming mice. Pros: Shape is awesome to me and very comfortable. The best ambidextrous mouse I have tried since Microsoft. Tracking is good for a Laser mouse but not as good as Optical mice like G400 or CM Recon. Used 9H mat. Texture and weight of the mouse were really well balanced and the grip was great. Software is great! Internal Memory is really good so I can uninstall the software once I got my setting correctly. Cons: Has a lot of bugs! One of the bugs is that it won't turn on with my computer sometimes. (Has happened to two different computers). I have to unplug it and then plug it back on so my mouse can turn on. I have never experienced this with any other mouse. Tracking not as good as my other laser mouse Logitech G9x. Tracking sometimes will go all weird on me. Like the tracking going upward will be lagging while going sideways or down won't. If you click the button a bit on the lower side it will make a weird clicking noise. You have to click the buttons in the middle or higher parts of the buttons. Since I play Claw grip sometimes I tend to click the buttons on the lower part which cause some weird noise. Build quality not as good as Logitech G9x. Well after using the mouse for couple of months I decided it wasn't for me and replaced it with G9x, which personally is a much better mouse. I was disappointed with all the bugs that it has specially for the price. I wouldn't recommend this mouse.
